Movement Disorders in Oncology: From Clinical Features to Biomarkers.
Review in Biomedicines, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundthe study of movement disorders associated with oncological diseases and anticancer treatments highlights the wide range of differential diagnoses that need to be considered. In this context, the role of immune-mediated conditions is increasingly recognized and relevant, as they represent treatable disorders.
methodswe reappraise the phenomenology, pathophysiology, diagnostic testing, and treatment of movement disorders observed in the context of brain tumors, paraneoplastic conditions, and cancer immunotherapy, such as immune-checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs).
resultsmovement disorders secondary to brain tumors are rare and may manifest with both hyper-/hypokinetic conditions. Paraneoplastic movement disorders are caused by antineuronal antibodies targeting intracellular or neuronal surface antigens, with variable prognosis and response to treatment. ICIs promote antitumor response by the inhibition of the immune checkpoints. They are effective treatments for several malignancies, but they may cause movement disorders through an unchecked immune response.
conclusionsmovement disorders due to focal neoplastic brain lesions are rare but should not be missed. Paraneoplastic movement disorders are even rarer, and their clinical-laboratory findings require focused expertise. In addition to their desired effects in cancer treatment, ICIs can induce specific neurological adverse events, sometimes manifesting with movement disorders, which often require a case-by-case, multidisciplinary, approach.
